Heading the agenda for the April meeting of the Manufacturers Council of the Central Valley will be a detailed presentation on the San Joaquin Valley Air District's recently adopted employer based trip reduction rule (Rule 9410) and the Healthy Air Living program
   If you have more than 100 employees reporting to a work site between 6 and 10 a.m., your company and that work site may be impacted by the rule and will need to register by July 1, 2010. If you're an environmental manager for your company, please consider forwarding a copy of this notice to personnel/human relations as much of the compliance burden will fall under their area of responsibility. If you don't know whether the rule will impact your facility, attend the meeting to learn more.

APRIL MCCV MEETING
Wednesday, April 21 * 8:30 to 11:30 a.m.

Special Presentation: 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m.
E&J Gallo Winery, Modesto * Operations Training Room
(Government Issued Photo ID required for access)
 
The presentation will include an overview of the rule, steps for determining if a company/site is subject to the rule, the compliance timeline and compliance measures. Part of the presentation will address the Healthy Air Living Program and the role it plays in helping companies comply with the E-trip Rule and gaining recognition for their emission reduction efforts.

Don't Miss Out: Last chance to sign up for 2010 CIM job opportunity booklet
CIM Logo partners
     The Road Show tour bus is parked, students are completing pre-applications and finishing up Work Keys testing. Now it's time for the next step in Careers in Manufacturing 2010: to prepare the CIM Career Opportunity Booklet that will be used to show high school seniors the types of jobs that may be available after they've graduated (and made it through the numerous screening mechanisms set up to ensure employers receive only the "best of the best.")

The booklet contains examples of the jobs that may be available and the types of positions at your firm which are suitable for 18-year-olds with a high school diploma.

* DEADLINE IS FRIDAY, MARCH 19
If you would like to have an opportunity to compete for a few of these great candidates, just contact Jan Ennenga by Friday, March 19 either by calling 209.523.0886 or emailing jan@mccv.org 

* WHAT TO LIST

We are looking for temporary, seasonal jobs as well as ongoing opportunities. You may also include any intern or scholarship programs you offer.  We've had a phenomenal response at the Road Shows and indications are that once again there is great young talent signing up for the program and looking for a start in the manufacturing workplace. Don't miss out!
 
 * HOW THE BOOKLET IS USED

The booklet is distributed to the participating high school seniors for their review and consideration. Students will be completing a pre-screening application which will be sent to the employers they have selected (by the Alliance WorkNet). The employers will then review the pre-apps and select those students who are eligible for current openings. This information will be transmitted to AWN, along with company specific procedures for submitting a formal application, testing or whatever your next steps might be. You may also choose to interview directly from the pre-application screening form. AWN can provide assistance to ensure efficient use of your time and compliance with all company hiring procedures.
